Brader's Hero Call Goes Wrong
Level 7
: 250/500, 50 ante
We ran into Dutch pro Thomas Brader in the hall way, and he told us one of his famous hero calls had gone wrong this time. He had 
on a board of 
(with one diamond) 
. He hero called all in on the river but "Hij had pocket King Kong" which is, you might have guessed it, Dutch for "He had pocket King Kong".
Two tables over from Brader was sitting before the dinner break, his countryman Raoul Refos had a seat. Unfortunately that seat was vacant as well when we walked over. One of his former table mates told us that Refos had gotten unlucky with king-queen on a king-high board against ace-king. Refos lost the remainder of his stack to Roberto Romanello who now plays just over starting stack.
